entering data simultaneously in 2 tables

[pam.richards]

Is there anyway to enter like data simultaneously in 2
tables within one database? I have a great number of
entries and I would obviously like to save data entry
time.

Yes but it will require coding and in a relational database there is *VERY*
rarely any need to do so. Codd says never and you should really have a good
idea of the dangers of doing it before doing it.

Why do you need to duplicate the information? One of the primary purposes
for having a relational database is to eliminate redundant data.
